What does a curator curate? Join Annemarie Sawkins, independent curator and art historian, for a lively talk about art, exhibitions, and the art of curating – using three of her recent and ongoing exhibitions as examples. We will start with a preview of A Creative Place: Art from Northeastern Wisconsin from 1940 to Present, a major historical exhibition from January 24 until May 18 at the Trout Museum. Inspired by the recent publication A Creative Place: The History of Wisconsin Art, this exhibition presents more than 120 works of art, highlighting a diverse array of artists, themes, media, and techniques. It will trace the development of the region’s artistic institutions and showcase both historical artists such as Jessie Kalmbach Chase, Agnes Wainwright (the first female art curator of the Neville Public Museum), Gerhard C.F. Miller, Thomas Dietrich, and Norbert Kox and contemporary creatives, such as Tony Conrad, Suzanne Rose, Christine Style, Michelle Grabner, and Beth Lipman, among many others. On February 27, the exhibition Kōgyo Japanese Theatre Woodblock Prints opens at the Allen Priebe Gallery, UW-Oshkosh, featuring more than 50 woodblock prints by the Japanese artist Tsukioka Kogyo (1869–1927) from the collection of Jan Serr and John Shannon. Kōgyo was, and remains, the preeminent creator of images of the classical Japanese dance-drama known as Noh. Between the 1890s and his death in 1927, Kōgyo produced five major sets of Noh prints thereby helping to save this national art form. This exhibition runs until March 20. This programwill end with discussion of Profound Prints: Art by Exceptional Women, an exhibition first presented at Edgewood College in Madison and recently shown at the Hilliard Art Museum in Lafayette, Louisiana. As its title suggests, the prints in this collection are among the strongest by the printmakers represented. The many celebrated artists—Alice Neel, Louise Bourgeois, Kiki Smith, Betye Saar along with Wisconsin artists Frances J. Myers,Jan Serr, Jill Sebastian, and Michelle Grabner—have succeeded in developing their own unique artistic vocabularies. Their voices, as expressed in rich and diverse subject matter, are a hallmark of this exhibition.
